Oh! Okay. I’m not an expert, but the depth of information here appears to disagree?

it's not
the parasites can't train their shitty "AI" if they don't have anything to train it on
surely that cat's out of the bag by now; and it's too late to make an active difference by boycotting the production of more public(ly indexed) code?

If they do it'll likely be part of an industry wide push to kill off the home-built PC market. It's no secret that MS and others want the kind of ecosystem Apple has and governments want more backdoor access to tech. And which mfg wouldn't want to eliminate partial upgrades/repairs. Imagine that the only PC you could buy one day has everything tightly integrated with no user serviceable or replaceable parts without a high-end soldering lab. Now, since it's impractical to build your own they can raise the price to purchase one above reach of most people and the PC market succeeds in their rental PC aspirations.

So.. a smart phone?

I love how a number crunching program can be deeply humanly "horrorized" and "sorry" for wiping out a drive. Those are still feelings reserved only for real human beings, and not computer programs emitting garbage. This is vibe insulting to anyone that don't understand how "AI" works.
I'm sorry for the person who lost their stuff but this is a reminder that in 2025 you STILL need to know what you are doing and if you don't then put your hands away from the keyboard if you think you can lose valuable data.
You simply don't vibe command a computer.
This is akin to a psychopath telling you they're "sorry" (or "sorry you feel that way" :v) when they feel that's what they should be telling you. As with anything LLM, there may or may not be any real truth backing whatever is communicated back to the user.
Kirth commented on AI documentation you can talk to, for every repo deepwiki.com/... · Posted by u/jicea
I took a look at a project I maintain[0], and wow. It's so wrong in every section I saw. The generated diagrams make no sense. The text sections take implementation details that don't matter and present them to the user like they need to know them. It's also outdated.
I hope actual users never see this. I dread thinking about having to go around to various LLM generated sites to correct documentation I never approved of to stop confusing users that are tricked into reading it.
Likewise, I tested this with a project we're using at work (https://deepwiki.com/openstack/kayobe-config) and at first it seems rather impressive until you realize the diagrams don't actually give any useful understanding of the system. Then, asking it questions, it gave useful seeming answers but which I knew were wholly incorrect. Worse than useless: disorienting and time-wasting.

And then quit after accepting a new job that pays them their modified value, because tech companies are particularly bad at proactive retention.
.. and because the job and environment weren't that pleasant or rewarding to offset that delta in income offered elsewhere at an equally drab employer

The optional pricing plans for self-hosted mention that you are buying email and chat support for SAML and other features, but I don't see where they're charging for access to SAML on self-hosted Zulip.
That's exciting! I didn't catch that from the pricing page, thank you for clarifying :)
Like sure eventually the person will learn the job but only after a significant cost in bad decisions.
I'd dread managing technical people in a field I have no experience or knowledge; in my experience, especially in tech, such managers are often held hostage by engineers who stubbornly don't want to do things, tell fibs about feasibility, ... The other side of that is that such managers often make progress making said engineers promises that often turn out to be carrots on sticks or outright lies.
If you can't go with in the trenches, what good are you and how do you expect to build a trusting relationship?
